My hobbies also include cooking up experimental recipes, working out, watching anime and horror movies, reading BL manga/manhua and meditating. While learning to meditate, I actually spent an entire month in residency at a Rinzai Zen temple in Japan and several months at a Zen monastery in the USA. Apparently, sitting still and doing nothing is actually very difficult! I’m also passionate about international exchange and education, which is why I'm doing a Master's program in Global Studies with the goal of becoming a study abroad education assistant. I look forward to hearing about your own hobbies and experiences! :D
